DEVO

Fountain Of Filth Lyrics

THERE IT WAS
JUST LIKE OLD FAITHFUL
THE ETERNAL FOUNTAIN OF FILTHI
I TOOK A WALK STRAIGHT OUT OF TOWN
BUT THEN I STOPPED AND TOOK MY TIME FOR PLEASURE
I WAS ALONE, I LOOKED AROUND
I HEARD A VOICE 50 I BUCKLED FOR SAFETY
AND THERE IT WAS DOWN ON THE GROUND
A POOL OF SOUND THAT SHOWED MY OWN REFLECTION
IN A FOUNTAIN OF FILTH
ETERNAL FOUNTAIN OF FILTH
I TRIED TO RUN I COULDN'T MOVE
FROZEN SOLID WHILE THE THOUGHTS OF MEN
ATTACKED ME
OUT OF MY HEAD THE FOUNTAIN SHOT
AND DROWNED ME IN A SERUM THAT I COULDN'T
PUT A STOP TO
IT WAS ME MYSELF AND I LOCKED IN A STRUGGLE
WITH THE TALKING HEAD BELOW ME
IN A FOUNTAIN OF FILTH
ETERNAL FOUNTAIN OF FILTH
I GOT A HUNGER THAT MAKES ME SAY THINGS
I GOT A HUNGER THAT MAKES ME DO THINGS
I GOT A HUNGER THAT MAKES ME WANT THINGS
I'M JUST A VICTIM OF FILTH
NOWHERE ARE WE SAFE
FROM THE POWER OF
FROM THE REACH OF
FROM THE APPEAL OF
THE ETERNAL FOUNTAIN OF FILTH
